Make an enquiry into why the BBC is bias, and lying about the brexit aftermath

Rejected 16 signatures

What the petition asks

The BBC seem to be hell bent on lying to the public about the problems faced after brexit. They are using the media as a political tool, to persuade a second referendum against the will of the people. We should not have to pay the BBC a licence fee if they cannot have a fair view

Why it was rejected

It asked for something that is not the responsibility of the UK Government or Parliament.

We can't accept your petition because the UK Government and Parliament aren't responsible for the issue you raise. The BBC Trust is responsible for investigating breaches of the BBC Charter, which includes complaints about the impartiality of the BBC.
